Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Property Value
Type: System.Int32A 32-bit signed number that uniquely identifies a geographical location.
The application should use the GeoId property to provide culture-specific services to customers. For example, the GeoId property can be used as a key to access a database record that contains specific information about a country/region.
This property value corresponds to the Windows GetUserGeoID function. For a list of geographical identifiers, see Table of Geographical Locations in the MSDN Library.
The following code example demonstrates the GeoId property.
